Dayton Opera Premiere!

Adapted from the opera by Georges Bizet
by Peter Brook, Marius Constant & Jean-Claude Carrière

Dayton Opera audiences will experience a Carmen like they have never seen before – intense, intimate and bitingly tragic! This English adaptation of Bizet’s celebrated opera, featuring a cast of today’s rising young opera artists, retains all its most famous music in an exciting version of the famous late-19th century opera, performed with four singers, three actors, and an orchestra of fifteen players. It’s Carmen unplugged!

Performed in English.
